Robotic Joint Replacement
Robotic joint replacement uses MAKO technology for precise hip, knee, and shoulder replacements. Ideal for patients with severe arthritis or joint damage, this minimally invasive approach reduces recovery time and enhances mobility. Dr. Melillos expertise ensures tailored solutions for long-term joint health.
Sports Medicine
Sports medicine addresses athletic injuries like ACL tears, rotator cuff damage, and fractures. Dr. Melillo employs arthroscopic techniques and regenerative therapies to restore function. Treatments prioritize rapid recovery while preventing future complications for active individuals.

Absolutely great office with great staff, always feel welcome here and the doctor is great. He is extremely busy (because he is in high demand) but never rushes you in and out - i just took my 14 year old son recently for an injury and the Dr. was great, explaining what was going on and how important recovery was.

Dr. Mellilo has done 3 procedures for me. Each one was a complete success and the results exceeded my expectations. His staff is amazing, friendly, caring, competent and efficient; they make a visit to his office or a phone call a pleasant experience. He manages his time very well and I have never experienced a prolonged wait to see him. I cannot imagine a better orthopedic practice. I reccomend him without any reservations.

My 12 years old daughter suffered a kneecap dislocation. After the visit to the ER, I was looking for the very best for my daughter. She does ballet and martial arts, so I wanted a doctor that loves what they do, but love to get my daughter back to her normal self more. I couldnt have chosen a better doctor. If you want the very best, Dr. Melillo is the doctor! He doesnt do his job halfway, he will make you feel at ease and will earn your trust completely. He will do all that he can for his patients, whether a preteen like my daughter or an adult (I spoke to 2 of his patients). I wish there

Dr. Melillo and his staff went above and beyond what I expected. Dr. Melillo reached out to two other doctors because of the complexity of my sons case and even called after hours to make sure we were moving in the right direction. I highly recommend him and his staff if you want thorough results for whatever you need to get treated.

I had a full knee replacement done by Dr. Melillo. I just went in for my 2 year anniversary follow-up appointment. I am very pleased with the results. Prior to the surgery I had so much pain I could hardly walk. It was almost impossible for me to go up and down stairs. Now I can walk without pain! I can now walk at a fast pace again too. Dr. Melillo and his staff are great! Years ago, Dr. Melillo also operated on my shoulder as well and I'm fully recovered from that surgery. He always does a great job of explaining the problem, fixing it, and then insuring recovery with the physical therapy and

I went to see Dr Melillo for right knee pain. An MRI was requested and I was told to take ibuprofen. And he told me to lose weight because that is what doctors always say (I had gained weight since a back injury and then the knee pain stopped me working out - something I was looking forward to resuming if I had some relief). Fine, the pain was manageable and only became severe when bent with weight on it and occasionally in the middle of the night. I got the MRI and came for a follow up. I was told that some kind of injections would help but that they had to get it cleared from my insurance first
